A Real Hi-Fi Wedding: Jess & Mark’s Afternoon Affair
It’s awesome to find Dopplegangers! Jess and Mark are like mirror images of me and Andy! Married outside? check! Favorite love songs played? check! Own a record store? check! Deep in love? DOUBLE check! And although there’s miles between us, it’s wonderful to have their presence right here on the site. Bring on the swoon!
Harriet (their talented photog) made this “album cover” for them! Too cute!
since we had just a simple, lovely afternoon wedding with no formal reception or dance, we opted for playing some of our favourite music of the past year and we also had a local jazz quartet play intermittently. as far as music while i walked down the aisle and during our ceremony, our good friend ryan bishops (of bandit & ox) played us david bowie – rebel rebel – a la seu jorge (in portuguese) on his acoustic guitar.
